Conditioning is a phrase widely used in Human Design to indicate where you may be influenced by patterns, beliefs and stories that disconnect you from your sovereignty. Conditioning can come in many ways, including past lives, our experiences, thoughts, memories and what the world taught us. Every one of us is influenced by conditioning because it is the path we have chosen to experience in this lifetime to bring us to the wisdom we are here to receive.
Embodying your Human Design is all about living in alignment and magnetism so that you live the most fulfilling life. This is where good health and well-being exist. In order to create more well-being, moving beyond conditioning is very powerful.
In Human Design, the undefined centres feel the energy around them and experience this as an amplified effect. When people with the defined centres leave, the undefined centres can still hold on to some of that energy, like a sponge. Because of these energetics, the undefined centres are usually (not always) where conditioning lives. Use the below guide to explore your undefined centres and how to recognise the conditioning that may live there:
- Root centre: feeling the pressure to be busy and to move more when your body craves rest will definitely impact your well-being. Tune into the wisdom of trusting the right time to move and finding your own internal rhythm.
- Sacral: acting like you have consistent life force energy when you don’t will leave you unhappy and depleted. You don’t need to do all of the things. Your wisdom is in seeing what is required for evolution and guiding that, which won’t happen if you do not rest your body.
- Solar Plexus: numbing out from what you are feeling and people-pleasing is a strain on your body. Your gift is in feeling emotions, not keeping them or taking responsibility for them.
- Spleen: it might be tempting to keep things in your life that make you feel safe, even if they are toxic, but in the long run, your safety is inside of you. Finding your own security and releasing what is toxic for you will also positively impact your well-being.
- Ego / Heart / Will Centre: when you search for validation outside of yourself, you give your power away and inevitably deplete the resources available to you in your energetic bank. Bring your power back and trust your strategy and authority to guide your decisions and where you dedicate your energy.
- G-Centre: giving yourself labels to feel accepted disconnects you from your wisdom to explore being the chameleon. The more you embrace this, the happier you feel in yourself and you will probably see your manifestation game light up!
- Throat: shouting louder to be seen and recognised won’t make you heard, but it will use the energy you don’t have access to. You don’t need to fill the silences, lean into responding when you are recognised.
- Ajna: searching for certainty keeps your body in a state of uncertainty. When your nervous system is on edge, your body feels the toll of this. Bring your energy back into your body and follow your strategy and authority to find your certainty.
- Head: future casting about what might happen in the future brings anxiety into your body and disconnection from the present. Bring your energy back and embrace inspiration when it lands.
The more you embody your Human Design in an empowered way, the more you will be aligned with health & well-being.
